Which Flower Symbolizes Love and Romance?

Suggesting love and romance, flowers are an ageless offering. Each bloom is always thought to epitomize an unequivocal symbolism and appeal. Out of the thousands of flowers, one supersedes the rest as a symbol of love: the rose. But why does the rose hold the spot as the ultimate symbol of love? And are there other flowers from our Love and Romance Flower Ottawa ON collection too that speak the language of the heart?

The Rose: Queen of Romance

The unquestioned champion of romantic flowers has to be the rose. This refined bloom has been associated with love, passion, and desire for centuries. It is believed to be an appropriate item for the manifestation of love. Moreover, you can send it with any other romantic gift with our Anniversary Flower delivery Ottawa ON. There are various reasons as to why there is a preference of the rose instead of other flowers. Firstly the rose can be found in a variety of colours which bear a meaning towards a recipient. The red rose is for profound love and passion to it while pink conveys the more gentle emotions. The intoxicating aroma of roses is another symbol meant to represent romance and opulence. The layered petals of the rose unwind as the layers in close relationships do. As well, just like the rose, a love relationship, too, can last for days, as long as there is appropriate nurturing.

Beyond the Rose: Other Romantic Contenders

Other flowers, though, can also wear the crown side by side with the rose as important to the language of love. Tulips, especially the red-colored ones, mean perfect and true love. And of course, spring favorites are for new beginnings, perfect for budding romances. For orchids, they represent types of luxury, grace, and strength held by their exotic, fragile look. They are great for expressing deep admiration and love in its most refined forms. Carnations have endeared their place in the annals of history as love emblems, although somewhat washed out at times. Pink ones do it more particularly, as they are associated with a mother's undying love—to illustrate just how love can manifest in so many forms. No matter which bloom you choose, our Florist in Ottawa ON can make memorable bouquet for you out of them.

History of Flower Symbolism

In reality, the roots behind the giving of flowers indicative of love or romantic inspiration are literally buried deep within human culture and history. The word is "floriography," thick with usage largely in the Victorian era. Considering the high level of social norms in the past, many found it difficult to liberally show emotions. From that point on, flowers started to perform the function of some hidden language which would allow one to say everything without words to a lover. This tradition continued until nowadays; giving flowers from our Ottawa Flowers is one of the most powerful ways to express emotions, especially love and romance.

The Universal Language of Flowers

But in fact, its power is not confined to the flower itself. It has been brought into play at many other life events and ceremonies. They are used to condole and congratulate, show friendship and respect. The same language enables us to express feelings so easy, sometimes holding complex meanings, and it itself is such a beautiful and fragrant gift. Mastering the more general symbolic meanings of flowers can help ensure that we choose the right bloom for a given occasion—to enhance our relationships and encounters. And moreover, with our Barrhaven ON Flower delivery, its even more convenient to send these blooms.
